Boston residents should brace for a wet weekend, with the National Weather Service reporting a 100% chance of rain tonight that could total up to half an inch. Skies are expected to clear somewhat tomorrow afternoon, though a 40% chance of rain will linger, according to the NWS.
Temperatures will hover in the low 40s during the day, dipping into the high 30s at night, with an east wind of 5 to 7 mph tonight. As the week begins, Bostonians will see a shift, with mostly sunny skies on Monday, followed by mostly cloudy nights leading into a breezy evening, with gusts possibly hitting 43 mph. The chance of mixed rain and snow Sunday evening is low but not entirely off the table, standing at 20%.
Looking ahead to the workweek, Monday promises mostly sunny conditions with a high near 38 degrees, though winds could be gusty. The week's winds are generally on the calmer side, ranging from 6 to 10 mph with higher gusts possible, particularly on Wednesday when gusts could reach 22 mph.
Those venturing out in the latter half of the week should prepare for cooler temperatures and a potential return of winter precipitation. Thursday night introduces a 40% chance of snow, which continues into Friday, where high temperatures will struggle to reach 30 degrees and winds will continue to brush the city at 7 to 10 mph.
